2. Resident Evil 4

Another game that is still available in backward compatibility, RE4 is a game that must make any list of scary video games. Take the mutating concoctions from the previous story lines, throw in beautiful graphics, creepy atmosphere, crazy townspeople, and giants with chainsaws and you have the tip of the iceberg of Resident Evil 4. Leon Kennedy from RE2 has grown up and found his manhood in the Capcom universe and he’ll need it to deal with a plague that threatens a small Spanish town and mankind itself.

Scary moment: Try the Bella Sisters, meeting El Lago up close or shooting a hissing and creeping Regenerator in vain.
